Alternatively, select Insert > Spreadsheet from the main menu bar.
This opens a small spreadsheet in the middle of the slide. When a
spreadsheet is inserted using this method, it is already in edit mode. It
is also possible to insert a spreadsheet as an OLE object.
To add a chart to a slide, select the corresponding layout in the list of
predefined layouts in the task pane or use the Insert Chart feature.
Impress offers the capability of inserting in a slide various other types
of objects such as music or video clips, Writer documents, Math
formulas, generic OLE objects and so on. A typical presentation may
contain movie clips, sound clips, OLE objects and formulas; other
objects are less frequently used since they do not appear during a slide
show.
For details on using spreadsheets, charts, and other objects in Impress,
refer to Chapter 7 of the
Impress Guide
.
Setting up the slide show
Impress gives you the tools to organize and display a slide show,
including:
Which slides to show and in what order
Whether to run the show automatically or manually
Transitions between slides
Animations on individual slides
Interactions: what happens when you click a button or link
Chapter 9 of the Impress Guide describes these tools.
Most tasks associated with putting together a show from your slides
are best done in Slide Sorter view. Choose View > Slide Sorter from
the menu bar or click the Slide Sorter tab at the top of the workspace.
All of your slides appear in the workspace; you may need to scroll to
see them all.
Custom animations are found on the Tasks pane. This is an advanced
technique and is explained in Chapter 9 (Slide Shows) in the
Impress
Guide
.
Your first slide show should probably have the same slide transition for
all slides. Setting
Advance slide
to On mouse click is the default and
a simple setting. If you want each slide to be shown for a specific
amount of time, click Automatically after and enter the number of
seconds. Click Apply to all slides.
